Copper sulphate can be made using a reaction between copper oxide and an acid Which acid?

Sulfuric acid is commonly used to make copper sulfate through a reaction with copper oxide.


Suggest why magnesium chloride can be made by mixing magnesium with hydrochloric acid but copper chloride cannot be made by mixing copper with hydrochloric acid?

Copper is an inert metal and below hydrogen in electro chemical series therefore can not displaced hydrogen from acids so copper can not be converted directly to salts by reacting with acids, however concentrated sulphuric acid reacts with copper on heating in presence of atmospheric oxygen forming the copper sulphate, chlorides and other salts are prepared from its sulphate salt.


What salt is made by sulphuric acid?

There are many salts made from sulphuric acid. A chemical salt consists of any given metal, and the acid anion. In the case of Sulphuric Acid, the acid anion is the sulphate anion ' SO4^(2-) ' This can combine with many different metals, e.g. sodium, calcium , copper, to form the salts, respectively, sodium sulphate (Na2SO4), calcium sulphate(CaSO4), copper sulphate(CuSO4). There are many other combinations.


Which salt is made when copper oxide and sulphric acid react together?

Copper sulfate is formed when copper oxide reacts with sulfuric acid.


Why can't copper chloride be made by mixing copper with acid?

A chemical compound is not simply a mixture of its component elements. The elements are bonded together in a definite ratio and structure. Although some elements, such as sodium and oxygen, may spontaneously react to form a compound, this is not the case with copper and chlorine as copper has a very low reactivity.

How does copper and sulfur join to form copper sulphate?

Copper sulfate (CuSO4) is not a binary compound of copper and sulfur but a compound of copper, sulfur, and oxygen. It can be made by electrolysis of copper with sulfuric acid: Cu + H2SO4 --> CuSO4 + H2


What is the compound name for copper salt?

Copper Sulphate CuSO4Since the question did not include Oxygen, the answer is Copper Sulphide (CuxSx)If you have only Copper and Sulphur reacting the product is Copper Sulphide (CuS), not Copper Sulphate (CuSO4).Copper Sulphide is made when Copper and Sulphur are heated together - the product is a black solid.Copper Sulphate is produced when Copper is reacted either with sulphuric acid, or with a less reactive metal sulphate. Copper Sulphate is usually in the form of a blue solution but can be evaporated to produce a blue crystalline structure.

What do you get when mix copper sulphate and chlorine bleach?

I made a copper sulphate solution using 1 heaped tablespoon sulphate and 90ml water, boiled it and let it all dissolve. then took some bleach in a syringe squirted it in and... It went brown/black looking exactly like bird poo and it went like a paste instantly after touching the solution.... try it, it was fun! :D

Is copper sulphate dissolves in water a physical or chemical change?

A physical change is different from a chemical change in two ways:1) In a physical change no new substances are made; in a chemical change new substances are made.2) A physical change can be easily reversed; a chemical change cannot be easily reversed.Dissolving copper sulphate in water does not produce a new substance. The copper sulphate solution is a mixture, not a pure substance.Also, by evaporating the water you can easily get the copper sulphate back again.So, dissolving copper sulphate is a physical change.Sometimes, though, when water is added to copper sulphate, it reacts with the water to form copper sulphate pentahydrate, which is a new compound. This would be a chemical change, but actually dissolving it is indeed a physical change only.See these sites for more information:http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/ks3bitesize/science/chemistry/chem_react_2.shtmlhttp://www.chem4kids.com/files/matter_chemphys.html
